Duck Call Room - Uncle Si Has No Sympathy For Godwin After What He Did To His Wife

Episode Date: December 21, 2023

Uncle Si and Godwin agree that a new health trend seems ludicrous, though they’d do it for a “nominal fee.” Godwin really ticks off his wife and now he’s afraid to go to sleep, and Martin can���t blame him. John-David nearly falls out of his chair laughing at Si’s reinvented story about his favorite pigeon. The boys give advice for taking care of invasive species and try to encourage a young man who’s having some trouble and feeling down at school. - Learn more about your ad choices.

Yeah, how do you like ice cream, but you don't like cold water? Cold water. I mean, it feels like if you are against cold water, you'd also be against the ice cream that we all just enjoyed. What are you talking about? You're against cold water. Well, I don't like cold water now. But then why do you like ice cream? Because that's just frozen water and milk.

But it's going inside. Oh, so it's the outside. I don't like it on the outside. Because recently we had another. experiences with the cold water? We did. And knee-deep mud. And knee-deep mud.

Martin told us all about it. Yeah, God was talking about it like he was the one out there in it. I was going to go, but I'm glad Martin went. I knew better. I ain't going to leave you hanging, old buddy. Not if I'm there. I was thinking, boy, it'd take a long time to go get that boat and come back. Where was the boat at?

That was my biggest question, because a boat seemed like the best. About two miles. But it's not your normal two miles. It's a different. No, you've got to wind and go through mud. Mud and trucks and trains and planes and automobiles kind of a deal. You had to walk two miles? No.

But you had to go by four-wheeler. Okay. Halfway around the world. This was already. Both miles of the world. It was, it was late. It was late. Already because we let the deer.

So it was quicker to just go. Walk out there and get it. Just walk out there and get him. Rough run on Martin, though. It wasn't that bad. I mean, it was bad. It was bad. It was a temporary suck, but do you know how much worse it had sucked to get in bed two hours later than what I did?

So you save time for sure. The most valuable asset we have, time. That's what I was interested in saving. And I sure do appreciate it. But Gowin was like ice cream in, cold water, out. That's like Paula. It's not something. don't understand.

She does not, she gets cold. Gets cold, but we was down at, we went camping at this, I forget what river it is, but it was at a dam and they blow the horn and the water comes up, and it's 50 degree water coming out of it. And she'll go out there wading, I don't get it. They say it's refreshing. Yeah, I like, she'll come out, her legs will be red. You know, that's like a thing.

now. But you turn that air conditioner on now, sir. What's that, the polar plunge? No, no, no. Like, people are buying, like, outdoor bath tubs that are freezing cold, so they can do cold water plunges because it's good for you. Yeah, it ain't good. It ain't good for me.

Godwin, people are paying thousands of dollars to have, like, instead of a hot tub, a cold tub. I'm happy for them. That's how ignorant to human race is. Why is that ignorant? That's ignorant. So doctors say it's good for you. The way's money to get cold. So if we were to get a tub and put in here.

Full of ice. Full of ice and water. Christian Huff does it like every day. I don't know if that's the greatest example to use to get these two guys in. Yeah, that's a good point. Yeah. Yeah, because they're going to look at him and say, no. I have a better motivator.

Money talks. What's the price tag? Money talk. I will just fix, say, the only way I'm going to get in a tub of ice is you fixed to come off from serious cash. Hold on. I have the benefits right here. I'm what it does for you.

None of them are like, they'll just give you money. All right, tell us the benefits. You may decrease inflammation and improve immunity. Yeah, there's a key word there.

May. You. Yeah. What if it don't work? Yeah. Okay. The next one. And there's another word.

Here's the next one. May, March, May, June, July, all that. Okay. The next one is, you could increase your circulation. That has that no word again.

Could. You might. Yeah, they might. Might are on the chickens, but. Okay. That's true story. My grandpa told me that. I'm hard.

Hey, when you're talking about getting in an ice, a toe full of ice? Yeah. You go out to chicken. You can go out to chicken again. You might. You might boost your mood.

No, I ain't a boosted out of now. Me and God, but ain't boosting nothing. You may? When it comes to, ice, I'm with John. You may up your metabolism.

No. Hey, I can't up by metabolism. Yeah. It ain't got nothing to do with ice. You may experience less post-workout muscle soreness. They don't have to worry about that. I don't do that anyway. Yes, I off that workout.

The next one says, hypothermia, which I can't imagine that being a benefit. That's what you can get when you fool around by. All right. So there's all the potential. benefits. My benefit is much more real. Laughter. No, cash. Cash. Yeah.

How much we talking? How much? How much we talking? Pre-to-get in a tub of ice water. Because I haven't bought myself anything for Christmas yet. I'm thinking about purchasing this. You ain't got enough. So.

You ain't got enough. If we had a tub right here between these tables, ice water's in the tub and a thousand dollars cash, you're not getting in it. All that. For one minute. I would do it. Hunter. I'll do it for a hundred grand.

A hundred grand. You would do it for ten grand. I will do it for a hundred thousand dollars. Okay, if there was ten thousand dollars sitting there. You would. Nope. Martin, you ain't got it. No.

Hey, I'll tell you it true. Now, I'll do it. I'll get in a tub of vise for a hundred grand. But the hundred grand has got to be in my hand when I get in that tub. Well, don't do that. You're going to get it wet. Oh, I ain't going to get it wet. How long does he got to stay?

What's the normal? For a hundred grand, you're going to have to stay for a couple hours. No, I ain't doing that. Hey, forget it. 100 grand, one up for one million. If I'm going to stay for a couple of hours. One million. I don't think you're supposed to stay for a couple hours.

I wish you were poor again. Well, hey, I do this for a lot cheaper. They might, dude. Hey, no, I know what the people will pay now. It's two minutes as well. I know what the people are paying now, so they're going to pay. If this were 2008, I could have got you in there for a pack of cigarettes and a donut. Like, 2020, we're talking about a meal.

Oh, no, we're not about a meal now, boys. Is that a pet of sugar? The price has definitely went up, okay? Yesterday's price is not today's price. Hey, inflation has hit bad, boys. Especially in the world of Cy Robert. That's crazy. It's two minutes.

Hey, hey, Godwin would get in it. I don't think it ain't know money. Two minutes. Two minutes, Godwin. What's the price tag? Take about all the benefits. I don't know if you can take it. Two minutes. Two minutes. What's the price tag? 500, I'll get in. Well, hey, Philip did it for free. I don't do it for free. Hey, and he had to sit in at one minute. I ain't get, oh, no, I'll time about it now. I ain't getting in my draws in front of these cameras for free. Yeah. I mean, I'd at least have to be like Jason get $200.

I'd do it for free. It may boost your mood. What more do you need? Hey, we'll let you down to your drawers. You have a swimsuit on. Well, no, I think you've got to get in it pretty close to naked for this to work. Oh, no. I don't know, because if you're in wet clothes, you're going to still be cold. Yeah, but then when you get out, you're still in wet clothes.

I'm trying to get to the quickest. I'm trying to get to the quickest Mike Lindell town. I don't like it, fine, buddy. I would prefer to wear a shirt. And then I'll take that off when the camera's X. I go topless right now. I don't worry about my top. But, you know, you start talking about downstairs, we've got to get paid for that.

That's $200. That's just like Valdez is coming. That's all I'm saying. I'm free. $200. I would try it for free. Because you go embarrass yourself when you get out of cold water. Here's a deal.

Here's a deal. I'm just saying. Let me put my blue robe on. Okay, and I'll do it for 80,000. What? I still ain't got 80 grand. Yeah. You're talking.

Hey, that's a deal of a lifetime. This is a deal between friends and we're not the friends. that have that money, sir. Yeah, but this video can break the internet and we make like a thousand dollars if we could all split. Woo-hoo! You know?

Uncle Sai and his Tommy John and the cold thing of water. Good grief. I mean, Cy, that's making me cold thinking about it. Think about the children, aka me,

you on YouTube doing a cold plunge, I mean, I think it's very beneficial to all of us. And I bet we could sell the... Except for me. It may be. It may be,

it ain't beneficial for me unless you get the $100,000. 100 grand. I don't think, I don't know how much views you got to get. Goblin for Godwin. Look, you forget what time, I'm a man of principal. And once I'm standing on the principal, I ain't getting off it. It's a hundred grand, son.

Nobody's going to watch me and you do it. They'd only watch him do it. What about a million views on YouTube? They'd watch Godwin. They'd watch Godwin. Because they know his phobia of it. We could get a million views on YouTube. I'm just saying.

It would break. Do you know, like 12 minutes? million people watch gobbin in a hot tub i bet we could get 20 in a cold tub thank you good night but i bet you your bowels ain't gonna be loose enough to poop like you did in that that's right that remember he remember he pooted in the hot tub so jillyddaub what he said he said a chili dog bubbles in the hot dog i don't want to be no bubbles it's going to be like my muscles are going to go so god with cash money laying right there it's got to be 500 grand i don't know i don't know Because I'd kind of like to see your face light up at like two grand.

I bet, you know, you lay two bands or 21 hondoes out there. That's hard to say no two. I mean, 50 bucks and I'm in. You honestly ain't got to pay me. I'd do it for the entertainment factor, but everybody deserves a wage. So $200 seems fair. That's true. Yeah.

We got our nails done at the foot place. For free. Yeah. Yeah, hey, I went and stuck my feet in hot water for you, old man. Well, hey, look, I just did that for you. You put, you can stick your body in cold place. No, I didn't do that for giggles. You're talking about ice cold water?

There ain't no giggles there, son. That's going to be hilarious. What are you talking about ain't no giggles? I wouldn't be able to breathe. I'd be laughing so hard. I know. Yeah, but I wouldn't be able to breathe. Okay.

Me and God, one of them there. I don't see the. I wish we could get a two-seater and put them in there side by side. All the, all the Mike, this might do this. It's right. It could be, yeah. That's it like a commercial. Wild people do it.

I should have called. Y'all, I could have called. They're doing it for a tinge. There's three of them. How much? Good of wood or sugar. Yeah. It reduces stress.

There you go. Reduce the stress. Do you have any aches and pains? It can help. Let me tell you what, it's 61 years old. It don't, it don't reduce stress. You don't have aches and pain. It don't reduce stress.

It just lowers everything in your body. I'm going to do it. Your heartbeat. You're about to get into it. Your heartbeat. your flow of blood, everything goes down slower. I think I'm about to get in there. All that's why they call it hypothermia.

Some stuff even disappears. You're close to death. Yeah, I ain't doing it. I'm in. I'll report back. I will put ice in my bathtub tonight because I ain't buying no expensive thing. I'm out. We had to take ice bath.

We had to take an nominal fee of $100,000. They're terrible. Yeah, when we play football, take ice bath. You actually do feel great when you get out of it. It's the, when you lose the sensation of your hands and your toes, that crap hurts. Yeah. It's like, been there, done that.

That's what. That crap hurts. Let's do it. But, you know, like when we were doing it, if the injury wasn't, like, in your foot or something, because this is the way we recovered from injury playing football, if the injury wasn't in your foot or your hands, they had like these little neoprene booties you could put on. and you were like, okay, this is bearable. And the rest of your body felt,

I mean, cold water on the rest of your body ain't their big of a deal. But them hands and them feet, that hurts. Like, one time I had a really bad angle sprain and I just had to sit on the side and throw my leg down in it. Misery. I used to have to get to school early and put my feet in cold water. It was way more comfortable to go neck deep than like one leg in it. That's what's crazy about it.

Because then it's one area. Yeah, the rest of you realize just how bad that sucks. If you put all of you under, it's not that big of a deal. Oh, yeah, it is. It's freezing. You just talk about it. And then when it starts throwing out, then that's one of the pain. I'm just glad to know what the number is for these guys to do uncomfortable thing.

How long are we going to talk about this? I don't know. Let's take a break and go get some more ice cream. We'll be back right after this. All right, look, springtime is here. It's warming up. You know what that means? That means more outside cooking.

And y'all know we love to eat beef around here. And that's because of our friends over at Trial's. beef makes such a good product, baby. Ain't it good? It's so good. Our friend, Sal Robertson would say, buy on the grill! Look, before we got Tritels, getting ready for a cookout,

man, somebody had to run the grocery store, do all the things, grab whatever was left in case you were late in the day. And you never really know where that beef comes from. But with Tritales beef, we skip the grocery store and do it a different way. Tritales comes from a family ranch out in Texas. They're a fifth generation American ranch. So they've been at it for a while. The beef comes straight from their ranch and other ranchers they work with who raise cattle the same way.

Their steaks are properly aged and shipped straight from the ranch to your door. We threw a couple of ribbys on the grill. Look, salt, pepper, garlic, hot fire, that's all you need. Look, because I'll tell you what, when the beef comes from people who raise cattle for a living, you can taste the difference. The tenderness and the flavor are fantastic. So if you're stocking the freezer for grilling season, go check out Tritale's beef. I know in size case Christine loves it, which is.

just a she doesn't eat meat. She ain't a big meat easier, folks. Yeah. Just go to trybeef.com slash. That's trybeef.com slash support ranch families and eat some dang good steak. Wow.

So, folks, your pipe dream of seeing God. How come you got an island rinked right there? I don't know. Do you need it? I might. That's a good one. You can have it. I got to use port too.

Don't it? No. I got like three empty bottles back here behind me. Yeah. What were you saying, Martin? I don't even remember. You started it on something. Did I?

And then Gowin said, hey, what's that Allen wrench for? I know. Well, his hands smell like taco meat. This is just kind of what he's used to. It's kind of what he does. Yeah. It's like that joke I was going to tell you about chemistry, but I wouldn't get no reaction. There you go.

See? I'm telling you. Don't overthink our human. He's classic. I don't even remember. You were going down something. Like you had something planned for this podcast. Memory Lane.

And you said, it went to, well, the way of the dodo. I'm trying to channel my inner vest to say it'll come back. Yeah, because I don't have,

like, they have a plan when they get in the room. Yeah, and we don't. That's why we talk about cold plunges. Yeah, cold plunges. Cold plunges.

It is. Oh, that's what I was going to say. Like, I do get, actually had this request a lot in messages and stuff on social. Yeah. To see Gobbin in a cold plan,

I basically just tell him it ain't going to happen. There you go out. I don't. Sorry, gang. I mean, unless y'all start like something weird to go fund me or something. Do it. Start a go fund.

Y'all heard his price, half a meal. Seems a little ridiculous to me. Yeah. But that's how much I don't want to do it. That's right. Goblin will even give some of that money to somebody that needs it. Yeah.

Ms. Paula. Ms. Paul. Yeah. Yeah, I need to give all the good I can do right now for her. Or to give it to the goblin for it. Yeah, because what we didn't really tell whenever Goblin wasn't here about the deer story is... Ms. Paula ain't shot one yet.

Congratulations for him. Yeah. But Ms. Paula still big mad at it. She mad at you for real? Oh, she butt hurt. That's not good. You don't ever want you a woman that way. So she's mad at you for shooting a deer before her?

Or did you shoot it out from under her? No. Mm-mm. No? No, she kept calling on our trip saying, what's this trip called, A, B, P, anyone but Paula. Oh, she got mad at me just because I was there. So she didn't get the invite because hashtag guy's trip. Yeah.

And, oh. That's rough. I said I waited on her. Oh, that's rough. Have you ever forgot her birthday? No, because our anniversary is the same month. And I just get two gifts at the beginning. And just, he just doubled up, boy.

Si forgets birthdays. We'll talk about that more. Miss Paula and Miss Brittany got the same birthday. So I always got Gobbins back on that one. Oh, hey. So, is this the maddest she's ever been at you? She ain't showing it, which is, she's just telling me. Oh, boy.

But she ain't, you know, I'm, I don't even want to go to sleep. She said, she said their deer broke up. Yeah. She said we're deer broke up. Oh, no. You know what, Gawin replied? Oh, they're not going steady anymore. Classic Gawin. Okay, dear.

Okay, dear. D-E-E-R. Okay, dear, D-E-R. Oh, boy. Classic Gawlin. She thought we were lying to her for the whole time. And I said, Paul, let me FaceTime you. And so I facetimed her, and I didn't turn it around to make her think we were still joking with her.

like, I mean, why would we lie to? I went through this whole thing. Oh, you're lying. And I said, yeah, you're right. And then I hit the phone. It turned around and there's his deer. She was like, who shot that? Yeah, who shot that?

You shot that one, didn't you, Martin? Nope. No, I just went and retrieved him. I didn't shoot him. I thought you was that gun. Mm-hmm. I said, I am in the mornings. Yeah.

I'm deer hunting in the evenings. I'm deer hunting. Yeah. Guy wouldn't know unlike Si I understood the assignment. You go deer hunting Jared made me do it What did Jared do? He's tired

He doesn't went with Si 57 times And he watched a deer die Yet he's tired of it Oh Jared rooting for somebody To shoot something That boy can spot them deer Oh yeah

Oh yeah he's good Si why haven't you shot in the deer Nothing got honed How big was that deer How many points 10 points? 10 points When did we become

How How I don't know. He's probably four and a half, five. He doesn't have a driver's license. Well, no, no, he's five. That's five. Yeah.

Well, one comes out there, it's five. He'll get popped. He'll get popped. Remember when Sye would just swerve to hit him on the side of the road? Now he's like the pickiest deer hunter. I miss a day, sigh shot every butt and Eddie saw at this point. I'm a manager now, boy. Hey.

Right. Stone has created a manager. Now, you are a man who's, self-admits you're not management material. Well, I used to say that, but nope, nope, I am now because I'll let too many walk now. I think you just lazy. No. Oh, no, no, because look, there ain't lazy dust don't even come into the picture.

I'm not going to clean it. Yeah. But he ain't lazy. Yeah. Well, I'm not, I'm not because somebody else. You can't call it. Somebody else has got to clean it. So I'm a really nice guy for not shooting them.

That's actually true. Okay. I'll make you a deal. If you will just shoot one the next time I said, Jared, with you, I'll clean it. Just so we can end this video. Right now it's like an epic mini-series. We're waiting to put together. We're like, we're out there filming nature.

Like, size deer hunting season is going to be on PBS. Okay. With all the squirrels and all that comes out. Hold on. Hey. Is Cy narrating it? Because I think I'm not one to tell you how to run a company. Here's a wild story.

But that video is going to go. No, wild. No, no, here's a wild one. Okay. If you go down there and go squirrel hunt, you don't see any squirrels. You see deer. Oh, you see deer. Okay, now I'm hunting deer.

Okay, now the squirrels have started being getting on me. Because I know. Oh, no. Because there was five the other day out there. Okay. Makes you wonder. With a couple of dogs. If the birds are even real.

Oh, no. Hey, it's tough, boys. I'll tell you, everything feels. death rays when I get in the woods. Yeah. Oh, you know what... You know what else we got up there where I'm hunting? What?

One of them big cats. Oh. No, I'm out. No, you actually saw one or you seen tracks? No, another guy has done his... Seen it? But it's brown. It's brown?

Well, that's mountain line. That's what it is? Well, yeah. That thing will get you. Okay, I'll say one of them down at Fields, too. Bears and Mountain lines. When did you see a mountain line? I don't know.

I don't know. I don't dog bow. What year? Huh? I spent a couple years ago. Why are you shaking your head? I'm not. He's seen everything.

I don't. Do you know, do you believe, hold on. The black panther. You don't believe the mountain. No, no, no. Not here. Not here. I 100% believe they walk through here.

Okay. They don't take up residence here, but they travel. I mean, they got the one in the tree and tree port for crying out loud. Yeah. Like, yeah, they walk through here. It's just amazing that one. One man sees all this. I spend a lot of times of woods, and I ain't seen one.

I don't think it's a man. I got good eyesight. Yeah. Look at him. He's not even wearing the eyes. Eagle eye, boys. Yeah. He's like that pigeon that he knocked its head around.

That's right. Look, and people don't believe that either, and that's true story. Oh, eagle. It turned his head 180 degrees. Eagle with a pigeon. That did not kill him. Okay. He flew upside down now.

Okay. Well, hey. Oh, it gets better. I saw it. I'll see it. You still up there. He's going to the ground. That's not flying.

That's gravity. Well, I'm going to, no. That's falling on fire. No, because he's, hey, when you throw him up, he's looking down. So, hey, he just hits the ground. So his wings are upside down. Yeah. Like bull riding.

Where do you look? Where you go? Hey, that's right. Where are you looking at him? Where are you going, boy? He's like when you hooked a battery up wrong on your mojo. It just spins backer. That's it.

It still spins. it just goes other way. What's that? Go away, boy. I've never heard that part of Eagle, the Pigeon. Nobody has. No, that's an addition. Oh, no.

That's what you call freshening up an old tale, boys. Oh, wow. That is one of the greatest hits. That's a good one. That's a good one. When was the last time he told that story in full? I don't know. It's been a couple of...

Go back and listen to that episode. Yeah, find out. Never it came out. I just caught him. Before he hit the ground, I caught him. and something funny looking about him. So I'm looking at it. Yeah, he just got hitting a head with a rock.

Yeah, but look, I looked at it and guess what it did. It's got a contusion. No, no, he ain't got a contusion. Look, it hit this pigeon in the head and it twisted his neck 180 degrees. Oh, my goodness. So look, I'm looking at his chest, but his head, he's looking behind him.

Okay, so look, I put this, this, I called him Eagle, because he was, he was ball-headed, whitehead. So I named him Eagle. Let's take a break. There you go. And we'll be back right after this. Just because of his next the wrong way, he don't mean he can't fly. He just can't fly upright.

That don't sound like he flying at all. Hey, oh, he flies this, it's quick, though. It doesn't sound like flying to me. Hey, it was like what, the Wright brothers, putting their first few on them. learn how to fly? What? They didn't go very far.

That's true. They were considered flying, and they were only in the air for like 10 seconds. That's why pigeon flew. Hidgett. No matter how high he flew him, hey, he's going to great. Did you ever have a pet eagle named pigeon? Then you had a pet pigeon named eagle. I just wonder if they were transferable.

That's what we should have got side for Christmas. Did you have a pet deer named? Oh, hey, that would. No, no, that would be fun to have a pet eagle. as big as that sucker is. Ooh, eight footers. Oh, no, yeah. That would be fun because, hey, I, you know, I've ducked on it where their eagles built nests in a big Soper's tree.

Oh, yeah. And, son, you could park a F-154 pickup in that stupid eagle nest. You think so? I'm serious. That thing is giant. That thing is giant. That and down there. Yeah.

that's a big one. Boy, that Joe's, you're talking about it. You know, you're saying one I'm talking about. No, I know, we were just there.

That sucker is huge, boy, and I couldn't believe when I was thinking about seeing a F-150 up in the tree and it makes me laugh. Yeah.

Well, no, no, because, hey, it would hold it. I'm telling you, it would hold it. I said they're big. What would you do if you had a pet eagle?

I wonder what's up there. I don't know, but if you can never catch them like when they ain't in it or around it, you'd probably fly a drone up there. I wonder how many duck bands is up in it.

We had one. We had one time. Yeah, y'all take Jason there with a metal detector. Let them do some dig. Oh, no. But we had one one time at a place with deer hunting, and a storm finally knocked it out of the tree, and, you know, you gotta go look.

Yeah. There were so, I didn't realize how many turtles they ate. Like, there were turtle shells. Oh, no, no, no, no. It was wild, man. The stuff that they'll eat, like. An eagle? Yeah, I mean, I can, I don't think the turtle got up there.

No. I ain't ever seen one just take off clowns. Well, no, no. I guess it's easy to catch because they ain't very fast. Jeff told me that when he put the green stand up, Mm-hmm. That some of year he came in there and it was like, what old did he say? I know there was a chicken, chicken bones in there, all kind of varmence bones.

That just means goblin was in there. Well, no, no. No, this was. It was chicken bones. Hey, good. That's what a three-piece dark looks like. No, no, look, he opened the door. When he opened the door, a big old owl come out.

Oh, yeah. You know, and he had made it his own because he used to not have wonders that were shut. Yeah, it was open. You know, and he had, hey, you know, he had run it. Yeah, that's a fun time whenever you open the door on a deer stand and an owl hits you in the chest. Hold on. Now. You.

Oh, them buzzards. Hold on. We had a buzzards. Turned. Terrible. Yeah. On the lane. Terrible.

Terrible. Good grief. And eagle's pretty much just like a good-looking buzzard. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, but he ain't dirty like a buzzard. But he got them big old toes. Yeah, eagle's clean. A buzzard ain't got them toes.

Yeah. Eagles clean. Yeah. Eagles are, he eats fish and stuff like that. Yeah, wow. Look at that beef. Yeah. So, Si, if you were to have a pet eagle, what would you do with it?

He would hunt with me. and I let him do the hunt and what would you do? I'd watch. He'd just be there to collect it because he let it be known he wasn't going to clean none. Yeah.

But he ain't late. Yeah, but hey, they're bad on ducks. What's that? Yeah. People up north. You know, they go duck hunting and they get them out of the decoys all the time when they shoot them. Mm-hmm.

Yeah, that's a bad deal. I always wondered, does that count against your limit since the eagle got it. Oh, it ain't okay. What do you mean? Well, I mean, like, if I'm shooting, I shoot my six duck the day. Boom, boom. And before I can go get him or retrieve him properly, an eagle,

and he's gone. I'm going to shoot another one. Do I have five or six? No, you had five. Because the eagle's not one. You had five in your possession. Yeah. Yeah, but I mean, I obviously killed him, so that would be a good one for your female game.

Oh, hi, you know. She would probably write you a ticket. He said, I'm getting sick, but I'm probably getting a ticket. See, but that's what I'm just curious. Oh, yeah. Where does that stand? She would just write me a ticket because the eagle stole one, I'm going to shoot another one. And like alligators in the marsh that come up there and snack on you duck before you get to him.

That's no fun. Well, now, I ain't going to, yeah, that'd be the same thing. That's what I'm saying. Gator got him. I'm going to get me another one. We need to have a game more than a house. No, we don't. No, but if there is one

That's one that, listen, no, this man admits to too much, man. I ain't trying to see him go down right there. That's true. Right here at the end. I mean, if we're going to make a viral clip, I want to be him in a cold bathtub, not him getting arrested. Size almost at retirement age and then it just admits to everything. Yeah, I don't, I mean, I ain't, I don't want to see him locked up. There's got to be.

Well, no. I don't think a judge would convict me if I don't. told him, hey, look, I was ducking. I shot my six duck, and the eagle stole it. So I shot another one. And the good news is you're not known for tall tails. Well, hey, I'm just going to say, hey, look, you know.

That's like my dog eat my homework. Is this part of the 95%? Well, hey, here's the thing. Hey, look, maybe. I asked my dog. Hey, look, maybe the kid told the truth when he said, hey, my dog ate my homework. What did you ask you, dog?

I asked my dog what two minus two was. What did he come up? He said nothing. He said, it ain't nothing. He has been gone a while. He just firing from the hip with him. One of them. We're getting a goblin joke of segment this time.

This is, oh, this is wild. We've discussed nature, cold plunges. Yeah, that's pretty much what we do. We're back to our roots. No telling them what's next. Probably something to do with food. anyway that ice cream cake is good when we first man what's the duck situation what we can talk about that when we come back

not killing any are you no we ain't let's do that when we come back let's take a break godwin what you were asking about i was asking what's the deal with the duck season there ain't no duck yeah i mean we're killing a few but not what it once was no it ain't as good as it once was martin i would like your expert opinion on the subject matter here's what I would say Si is taking a part of bell that was on this desk right now. Anyone hears noises.

Yeah, he's taking somebody. It's in eight pieces. Somebody tried to mute his bell and he said that ain't going to work. I'll fix that. Sorry, Hunter for seeing that. He will fix that. But I was telling Cy before, I think it's even before you got here,

Gobbin, too. It's just a bizarre year in the fact that I spent a lot of time outside. and I pay attention to all birds. He's a bird man. I have not seen a cedar wax wing yet. They migrate as well. It's a little songbird.

Beautiful little bird. One of my favorite birds in the world. A cedar waxwing, everybody. He's beautiful. I'm going to pull it up. For those of us that don't know what a cedar wax swing. For those of you at home that may not know what this bird is, let me show it to. Because I didn't know if that was a bird or an insect when you said it.

They sand in a scout. Okay. Beautiful. Okay, I've probably Beautiful bird See one like in a Walmart parking lot Eating a French fry No, they don't eat french fries

They're berry eaters They're buried They'll get in a tree We're here to learn And then after a while The rest of them will show up Yeah They'll eat them bears and get drunk

And fall out of it Hold on So as a non-knowing of the bird Life person What on earth does this bird Have to do with ducks? Well, he migrates too All of them migraines.

to some extent. And so I've just noticed that I haven't seen any of these here in North Louisiana this year. I haven't heard anything about some big cedar waxwing dial-off. So, Si said that they were, he's been in Arkansas since I've been, and it's pretty,

it's a little north of central where we go. I've seen 50 up. Kind of in the north half, and he saw 50, which is one bunch, essentially. Yeah. Like that's the way they migrate. They migrate in bunches.

Yep. And there'll be, you know, 15, 20, up to, I mean, I've seen a hundred of them. Oh, yeah. So. And they're a beautiful bird. It just doesn't surprise me now looking at that why there aren't many ducks.

There's something going on with the migration. Migration either it's paused, delayed, because it didn't happen early because I would have seen them. I was still outside. I was deer hunting. Yeah. So it's just a weird phenomenon. And another one that I haven't seen or heard many of is one,

and Godwin always do the white crown sparrow if you've ever heard us there it is you hear it a lot when you're deer hunting like yeah and they say on like cornell's deal they say he's saying oh sweet canada Canada Canada Canada Canada but again I'm a nerd yeah let's call it what it is but I haven't heard that while I've been deer hunting this year like I mean I have but usually there's a bunch of you generally wintertime and right at dark they'll like really fire off and you'll hear it all around you all evening and it's just not happening. And they migrate as well. So they're a neotropical migrant just like anything else.

And so it's just weird in the fact that how is the whole migration of every species that far delayed? I can't believe what I've seen two bluebirds the other day. Yeah. They're gorgeous. Yeah. Okay. They were, you know, and I don't remember where I've seen them here or it may have been in Arkansas. Yeah.

But I was saying two of them the other day, which I hadn't seen many of this year. It's wild. It's wild times in the bird world. I don't know what the shift in migration or... You think it has to do with that movie? What? Migration. Oh, no, I wish my boys were old enough.

You could take them? I'd take them to go see that in a heartbeat. You should take them. Why? Because it'll be hilarious. So I can get up and walk out four minutes into it. No, they'll love it. Well, no, because some of the stuff you're talking about, you know, the fish do the same thing.

what's that migrate yeah yeah a little bit you know just you know the flying like the macro especially yeah they come down the coast and it shows out and the oh for sure the wildebeest in Africa they they migrate like 5,000 miles yeah I just don't know what it means for us I don't know what it means winter wise I don't know what it means bird wise have you seen this but it's not cold up in Canada enough to send them down here have you seen this before. No, not, well, in fairness, I haven't seen it since I started paying attention to it. I haven't paid attention to this my whole life. So, so have you seen it before? Probably for, same thing, same thing. Probably for 10 or 12 years that I've really been like tuned in with it. I have

not seen it. Well, I'm anxious to say what happens around Christmas because that's when the bulk of the mileage usually come. Yeah. And if it's anything like, it's close to it. What's the day? 19th. Yeah. Yeah, we got. It's right. If the next two days. Yeah.

The next two days is when the mother's going to show up. If they show up. If they show up. So you're saying there's a chance. It may go happen. They don't show up. Yeah. It's the change.

It may not happen. The year they never came. Yeah. Yeah. It's an or, and then that begs the question, are they there? What does that mean? The prairies may not have raised enough birds.

What's the population? Yeah. Yeah. What's the population? Has there been some dial? or power lines and windmills killing too many. Well, I was next to ask you about it last year. Do windmills kill ducks?

Windmills kill a lot of birds because they migrate at night. Bird migrations, like large birds. That would hurt. Large bird migrations almost exclusively happen at night. Really? And they can't see at night. So they're just flying at night, boom, windmill. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah, that little red light is just for airplay, not for birds. they're not aware what that means sorry to the bird community for laughing yeah but I mean so it's just kind of a weird I don't know it's a weird and for us whose job depends on it to an extent it's kind of an

answer we need to figure out so that's interesting I don't know it's bizarre it's like we we killed them in Arkansas no doubt ducks not like it should have been I've been to that place for 14 years

I haven't gone every year but I've been enough to know what that place should be on opening weekend a second split. Yeah. Yeah. It wasn't that. Wasn't that? No, we had to go in a dang thicket and kill them. Well, I fix a thing. Yeah. And if you're done that every day. The water regime right now. It's low everywhere. It is. But we're supposed to get rain like, if we're supposed to get like four straight days of rain here coming pretty quick. Yeah, but it's going to take that. Okay. ain't even, you know, because right now, everything that used to be before there was water,

there is none. Yeah. It's dry. All the creeks are dry when I went north. Yeah. All the creeks are dry. There ain't no water. I know that from a boat race.

Oh, yeah. Yeah. They're all. And look, how they know, I have no idea, but they know. So they're just held up wherever there's water. Yeah. Most likely. So they probably just stopped short.

They stopped somewhere that had water. Yeah, they had water. So somebody somewhere's just. in heaven. All the ducks stop there. North Missouri is doing pretty good. I got a friend in North Missouri, and I mean, they're doing, they're doing solid. But like, they should be on the tail end of theirs.

Yeah. Yeah. Because the duck should be passed. Yeah. Like, they should be. Oklahoma's the same way. Oklahoma has had a good year. There's a lot of pentails on Cattahoula.

I know that. They ain't been there in years. And blue wings. There you go. Oh, they already down there? Just south of us. Okay. Okay.

They'll be coming back here very short. They'll be coming north. It's just an odd year. We don't really dive in the weeds much on hunting on this podcast, but we did here. We're diving into the world of bird migra. We're informing the people of migration before they go see the children's movie. Yeah. It comes out Christmas Day.

I have no idea. I just wanted me and you. I don't know. It's a movie about ducks. I mean, it's an animated movie, obviously. I don't think it's very true to what they are. But they are mallards. They are mallards.

Yeah, which is more than Willie could say for himself on dancing with the star. No, what was that? Wood duck. Yeah. But he called him in Malad. Mass singer. Mass singer. Whenever he was the Mallard Wooddut.

Yeah, he was the moody, the wood lard. Woodlard. It looks good, but, yeah. But, no, it's an interesting time. It'll be interesting because, I mean, like, our jobs do depend on to an extent. So not yours, but I mean, does kind of. I need water.

Yeah, you do need water. Actually, the worst the hunting is, the better my job. Well, that's what I'm about to say. If Ms. Paulo would run one through you, I could go with a hook. Thank you. And then you'd have to go see Johnny D. It's a beautiful thing when people quit hunting and start fishing again. Oh, it's big to happen.

It might happen early this year. Because I know all them fish are about 18 foot deep in the channel. That's correct. That's every year. I had a person tell me that they caught a certain amount. He needs a new fish counter. I'm not going to use any names, but he asked me if we had a fish counter because he messed up his count a little bit.

There you go. He never got a new one. Good. Good deal. Well, let's take our last break. We'll jump into that inbox right after this. Inbox. Hello at duckcallroom.com.

That's the email address. Johnny Dee. What's up? What's in there? Okay. So every once a while, I get just one from a place that I'm like, Really? People there listen to us. Today's Seattle, Washington.

Oh, okay. Okay. You wouldn't expect the Seattle Washington to listen. I've never been. I have. They got sleeping problems up there. They are sleepless in Seattle. Yeah, they all sleep in Seattle.

You went to the zoo? They got a good zoo? Yeah, other than that, they got a pretty good place. They got water and milk gardens. Yeah. It rains a lot up there. anyways landin could tell us more about seattle but he's got questions and i think it kind of goes along with our last segment really kind of more educational hunting world but this one's a kind of an

ethic question in the hunting and fishing world are you ready ready is it okay to kill slash remove invasive species of fish and other things when they are harming native species if your state identifies them as harmful and invasive even if you do not intend to to eat them? Yes. We put them there. It's our fault that they're there. Yes.

Go clean up your mess. Because he's saying like his state will even pay people to fish and get some of the fish out of the water, which sound. Them South Louisiana boys ain't eating all them nutria. But if you're below IT and you still get what, $4, $5 a tail. Yep. Because we brought them here. They're destroying the marsh. So you got a whack them.

Nope. There's only one way to keep them. They are eating them. Well, some of them are. I'm saying they ain't eating all of them. So his big thing is he feels wrong for killing a fish that he's not going to eat. Well, you're not, yeah, you got to look at this different. It's a different, this is like weeding your garden.

Yeah. This is not killing the weeds where the good stuff can live. And we're the native stuff. Yeah. Like the stuff that's supposed to be here. Now the argument would be, will somebody come by and pull us out because we ain't native here either? I get that. We're an invasive species in the United States.

Humans, we are. human beings. Like, you know, we are. But just saying, it's our job, we screwed it up. So now we've got to fix it. I mean, we spend a lot of money on chemical every year trying to kill invasive species of weeds that everybody thought would look great in their little water fountains.

Bum, bum, bum. I'm just, you know, I mean, and they get out. And the next thing you know, you've got a major issue. When they become a problem, they go pour them in some pine. Yeah. Or river. There you go. And even like, I don't think a groundhog would be an invasive.

species like out in Montana, but they break in the cows' legs and the horses' legs by digging holes everywhere. So if you go up there, they whackin and stacking them to protect the other animals. And I say fire away.

Fire at will. Because, you know, the Bible does say, you know, we kind of got rights over the animals. Now you've got to be careful with that. You can't just go whacking and stacking stuff for fun. But if it is for a reason, and you're state has decided that there is a reason.

People are smarter than me, smarter than you, like, hey, get them out of that water. Yeah. Get them out of that water. As long as you do it in accordance with the law, go ahead. Go for. Because one thing that just come up, the government's involved there. Uh-oh. I'm serious. It was on television in the news.

They ordered 500,000 owls killed. Because they're invasive species and they're getting rid of the native species. Not here. But it's somewhere forth.

That's interesting. But on that, you've got to be real careful. Yeah. When you do approach something like this. Yeah, it's not senseless killing. Yeah, that's what I'd say. Somebody somewhere can tell you what you need to do.

That's why the government has programs that pay you for tails or fish. Well, it's like the Asian carp thing, too. I mean, you know, those started as a way for us to make, like, cheap cat food or something. Yeah. And they built it too close to the Mississippi River. Shocker, it floods. That's what it does. Yep.

They got in the river. They got in. Now we all have those jumping, stinking things that we have to deal with. Everywhere. Which are- Shoot them. What's our edible? If you're hungry. If you're dying.

You can eat them and love off of them. Yeah. You can survive. All right. Here's another one. I got another one. You ready? Oh, yeah.

This one did not come hello at Duck Call Room. This one came via Springfield, Missouri with a stamp on it to Duck Call Room 117, Kingsland, Westmore, Louisiana, 712292. Dear Duck Call Room, I'm a 13-year-old 6-3. Good, Gary. Biggin. Nope, skinny kids, so he ain't that big. A tall one. He's taller than me, who is homeschooled.

Wow. I'm in a youth group at my church, and I'm quiet and shy there and feel like people use me, even my quotation, Mark's friends. The problem is I'm also in a Christian sports program playing basketball. Dear sir, you were 6-3 and 13. Basketball court is where you should be. But there I'm a goofy acting weird kid and I feel that no one likes me and wants me to leave. I don't know what to do.

Am I having some kind of identity crisis or I'm just straight up or am I just straight-up depressed? Sincerely 13-year-old, 6-3 kid from Springfield. From Smith. Marshfield, Missouri. Marshfield. First question. Are you good at basketball?

It's got to be. If you are, you should be, okay, if you are, hey, go for it. Hey, play it, win a scholarship to whatever college you want to go to. And then, hey, look, don't worry about what people think about you. Just dunk on them. Hey, dunk on them, slam them, okay. You got the talent, use it. He might not be dunking on you.

That's my advice to you there, young man. okay oh six three no dunk i'm six two and i've never even touched the rim oh he could dunk it yeah you and johnny d go about the same version he he could dunk it when i jump it's like somebody poured cold water on me even if they didn't i can't move my friend what i would say is you just got to be yourself and if people don't like that that's tough yeah it's weird and i get that's easy to say at 33 way easier than 13 because when i was 13 i was probably more concerned i think I think what I'm fine puzzling is he says he's quiet and shy in the church group.

Yep. Goofy acting. What do he say? Goofy acting. On the court. You want to know what that problem? He's a clown on the court. Like.

But hey, there ain't nothing wrong with that. Goofy acting weird kid. Yeah. Goofy acting weird kid. So you're trying to be something you're not in two different places. Yeah. Which one of those are you? And be that one.

And maybe you're not either one of those. Maybe you're just like totally level. And I don't know. Somewhere in the middle. Yeah, but what it sounds like, I mean, I'm guessing what I'm gathering is maybe he's, he's dealing with a little bit of bullying is what I'm, is what kind of what it seems like. Because they, they say they want you to leave. Like there's some stuff in there that's weird.

Or are you reading that? But you're 13, man. And when I tell you, you are in the best days of your life. Yeah. You're there, buddy. Especially if you're 6'3 on a basketball court at 13. Yeah. Yeah.

I was 5'2 when I was 13. on a basketball court. Yeah, you're smashing, man. So, find a way to find joy in this time of your life. Man, 13. I actually got this letter yesterday, and I took it to hunters to make sure I didn't lose it. If y'all saw my office, you would understand.

It's rough. Hey, JD gave you the best advice, a young man. You know, be yourself. Yeah, be yourself, man. Hey, be true to yourself, and then, hey, everything else will work out. Whatever that looks like.

Are you the goofy kid? Maybe you are. That's fine. Be the goofy kid. Are you the quiet kid? That's cool too. But I was telling Hunter, I was like that letter was so weird to me because I don't remember at 13.

And maybe I was. Maybe I did. I mean, I was in the Husky department, so I'm sure people made fun of me. Not that I care. You're in a all. You said, bring it on. I'll be at left guard after school. I was the one already shopping with the numbers on the bridges.

Like, you know, everybody else was still like in small, mediums and large. I'm over your waist size and leg size. Like, you know, I was on at like 36, 30. bag at that time. So here I am, I'm making fun of myself here because, I mean, I can't.

It doesn't bother me any. But I don't remember at 13 ever feeling the way he's saying he felt. I just remember being a kid. Yeah, he may be picked on by the kids. That's what I'm saying. If that's the case,

man, that's terrible because that. But you also didn't have YouTube and Instagram and all this other stuff. That's true. And so now I'll give it to the kids these days. For me,

it's easy to be like, just be yourself. They don't like it. you, so they're a problem. Yeah. Like, that's easier for me to say back then than it is for you to say now, because now, if somebody doesn't like you, they're going to post it for the world to see, and then that's always in your head.

But I just always stick to if, if you think, just take Doug Dynasty, for example, the reason why it worked is because there was an old man named Cy Robertson, who they turned a bunch of cameras on and gave a microphone under his shirt to, and they said, let's see what happens and then he was nothing but himself and the world loved him and guess what some people don't like him which is crazy and some people don't like me some people don't like godwin some people don't like martin but the reason there there's some success in our all of our individual lives is because we're just ourselves yeah and if somebody don't like you you said one thing in there okay you're a christian okay you're you was involved with a christian yeah yeah okay you know hey that's what

That's the main thing. Take Jesus everywhere you go and try to be like him and all your dealings with the human race. And, hey, other than that, you know. Let your identity be found in Christ. Yeah. Let it be that one. Not in what other people. Not on a basketball court, not let your identity be found in him.

But if somebody makes fun of you, dunk on them. For real, for real. And even if you don't dunk on them, just hold the ball. ball up and say, but you can't get it. Bet you can't. Like, you're 13, big dog. You can't get this. That's what you're looking, boy.

Have fun and love each other. Amen. Do it like you want to do it. Yeah. Live your life the way you want to live. Here's a Bible verse for you, my friend. Send us home. 139, 13 and 14.

For you created my inmost being, you knit me together in my mother's loon. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. I know that full well. My man, God made you. He had a plan for you while you were in your mom's womb. You're a 6-3 skinny kid who plays basketball for a reason, and God has that reason.

You don't know it yet, but what he wants you to be is found in him and be yourself, and I promise you great things are going to happen in your life. My man. Isaiah 29 verse 11. We're hitting you with another one. I remember the plans I have for you, not to harm you,

but to bless you and give you hope and a future. Boom. There you go. Live your life with the Lord. son and move on. Amen. See you, gang. We'll see y'all next time.

We're out. Bye.
